Hi folks,
I need to format 45 desktop PC's before they are collected at the end of the week. I'm looking for a utility (must fit on a diskette) that will do a secure format (i.e. multiple passes writing zeros) of the disk drive.
Anyone have anything that can be fully automated?

1 pass of zeros on the free version of killdisk at:

It fits very nicely on a floppy.
The 'paid for' version meets several standards for data deletion and does multiple passes.
I hope this helps.
